More Q and A With Julie, and House Tour #3!!

WOW - the questions have been rolling in, about the house and the Cuttlebug Ink Emboss, so here you go with the most asked questions.

1. What is the name of the paint in your family room?

The store we bought it through was General Paint, and the brand is ColorLife. The name of the paint was Rickshaw, color code : CL 32750

2. What kind of floors do you have through the main area?

We have hardwood flooring on almost the whole main floor (helps with allergy issues). It is called Jatoba, or Brazilian Cherry, one of the HARDEST woods out there. In our other house, I dropped my dutch oven on it, and it didn't even dent - how awesome is that ?!?!

3. What are the little things on your stairs ?

They are LED lights built into the steps. If we left them all all the time, it would take 20 years to burn out, AND the only use 1/3 of a watt. This is really nice for me, to not have to turn on all the lights when I need to go upstairs to check the boys at night. We also have them on the steps going into the basement.

4. Can I move in with you ?

Umm, no! But I wouldn't mind if you wanted to come stamp with me sometime...hehehe.

5. Can your hubby build my house too?

Hmmm, He would love to, honestly, but only if you live in our area. The reason he does it here, is because he knows the contractors here, so if you are wanting one, he can help you out. We also do have New Home Warranty in place, so you can be rest assured that you are getting a great builder in R + J Homes!! OK - enough PR for him in one day...LOL

6. What kind of ink can you use with the Cuttlebug Ink Emboss technique?

I used Classic ink from Stampin' Up!, but you can use anything. I myself wouldn't use any type of solvent ink, since it would probably stain, but craft and chalk ink would be fine.

7. Can you make a template / tutorial for the box of the gift set HERE?

I am already working on one *wink*

Now for some more pictures.

These are Russ' rooms. The first one is our theater room in the basement, but he HAS to share this room. We have a projection TV and surround sound. With all this equipment, you would think we would watch more movies, huh?? The other one is his office, and he spends a lot of time in there when he is home. I'm not sure whether it is to work, or just hide...LOL

This is the front entrance. We had an UNBELIEVABLE tile guy come in. He was only 26 years old and had been laying tile for 13 years. Yes, that does make him 13 when he started.

His story totally broke my heart, his parents abandoned him at that age, and since he wanted to eat, he got a job. He has been doing this for half of his life already, and it shows, he has an eye for it like no one I have ever seen! Russ made sure that he will have ALL our tile jobs from now on. The door on the left is the one that goes into Russ' office.

So now, you have basically seen everything in the house, I hope you enjoyed the tour!

Your new home looks wonderful....
And I made a card this morning using the cuttlebug emboss technique. Did I take a pic? NO... It was for an invite for someone who is blind, so the cuttlebug was perfect. Thanks for such a great technique.
